1. An electronic device comprising:
- a panel configured to detect contact;
a first piezoelectric element disposed on the panel; and
a control unit configured to perform control to output sound by driving the first piezoelectric element, whereinwhile executing a calling function, the control unit performs control to drive the first piezoelectric element based on an area of the contact detected by the panel,the control unit performs control to drive the first piezoelectric element when the area of the contact detected by the panel satisfies a predetermined standard,the predetermined standard is a size of a user'"'"'s ear, andthe control unit performs control to drive the first piezoelectric element based on whether the area of the contact is equal to or less than the size of the user'"'"'s ear.

Abstract
An electronic device can effectively transmit sound even if a force is applied to a panel by an ear. The electronic device includes a panel (10) and a vibration unit (30) that vibrates the panel (10) to generate air-conducted sound and vibration sound that is transmitted through a portion of a human body. The intensity of vibration of the vibration unit (30) changes in accordance with the force applied to the panel (10).
